I've been dating the singer and songwriter Shawn Mendes for about six months now. We actually just went out and celebrated out six month anniversary last night. I've been staying at Shawn's condo in Toronto since it's the summertime. Shawn and I were laying on the couch. My back rested against his chest as he held me. I felt peaceful and content and hummed when Shawn kissed the side of my head. His phone then dinged.

"Oh it's Niall. He's in Toronto and he wants to know if I'm free to hang out." Shawn said. I flipped around so I was laying on my stomach.

"I saw him in concert once." I said. Shawn raised his eyebrows.

"Was he solo or no?" Shawn asked.

"It was when Zayn was still in the band." I said. Shawn's eyes widened.

"Wow. Do you want to meet him?" Shawn asked.

"Um, sure." I said. Shawn tilted his head.

"What's wrong my love?" Shawn asked.

"What if he doesn't like me?" I asked.

"Oh honey, he's going to love you. Not nearly as much as I do, but he will, I promise." Shawn said.

"How do you know?" I asked. Shawn began to rub the back of my head and I smiled a little at the soothing feeling.

"I know this because everyone that meets you and gets to know you, loves you. I've told him about you actually." Shawn said with a slight blush.

"Really?" I asked. Shawn nodded.

"Yup." Shawn said.

"What did you say?" I asked, eager to know what my loving boyfriend had said about me. Shawn smiled at me and brushed a stray out of my face and tucked it behind my ear.

"Well, I called him on the day that we met and said that I had met the most wonderful and most beautiful girl in the world. He asked me what your name is and stuff like that so I told him. And then the day that we began dating, I texted him and told him and he was very happy. He loves how happy you make me." Shawn said and I smiled.

"Awww honey. Oh now I'm excited! When do I get to meet him?" I said and asked. Shawn smiled.

"Let me ask him when he's free." Shawn said and I nodded as I rested my head on his chest.

"Okay." I said. Soon, Shawn's phone dinged again.

"He's free later today and tomorrow." Shawn said. I sat up.

"Well I have to go get ready if he's going to be coming over today." I said.

"No baby, you look perfect." Shawn said and I blushed.

"Shawn, I'm in one of your t-shirts and shorts." I said. He nodded.

"Yes, like I said, perfect." Shawn said. I smiled and looked at my outfit.

"Are you sure? Should I get dressed up more?" I asked. Shawn sat up and shook his head.

"No, don't get dressed up more. You look perfect." Shawn said. I sighed and nodded.

"Okay. Thank you baby." I said. In response, he placed a kiss on my lips. I felt my heart race as if I had just run a marathon, I felt butterflies erupt and fly around in my tummy, and I felt sparks shoot through my body like fireworks. We soon pulled away and smiled at each other. Later on, there was a knock at Shawn's door and Shawn went to get it. He opened it and Niall was there.

"Hey Niall! Come on in." Shawn said after the bro hugged. Niall came in and smiled at me.

"Hi, you must be Y/n." Niall said. I nodded.

"Yeah, hi. Nice to meet you." I said and he pulled me in for a hug.

"Nice to meet you too." Niall said as we pulled away from the hug.

"Do you guys want anything to eat or drink?" I asked.

"Do you have a beer?" Niall asked. I nodded and then looked at Shawn.

"Just a beer please." Shawn said. I nodded and then grabbed them both a beer and a water for myself and went back into the living room. Shawn smiled when he saw me.

"You know Y/n, this guy won't shut up about you." Niall said.

"Dude!" Shawn said as he sat next to me and put his arm around my shoulders.

"Well it's true! You're always texting me about how much you love and adore her and everything. You just gush about her constantly." Niall said and I blushed. Shawn looked embarrassed so I kissed his cheek.

"Don't be embarrassed honey, I think that it's really cute. Plus, if you ask Grace, I talk about you all of the time too." I said. He turned to me and smiled.

"Really?" He asked. I nodded.

"Yup." I said.

"What do you say about me?" He asked. I blushed.

"Well I tell her how much I love and adore you, and I tell her about the crazy feelings that I get when we kiss and hold hands. And since I've been staying here, I keep telling her how safe and warm I feel when you hold me, especially when we're going to bed." I said. Shawn smiled.

"That's so cute babe. Come here." He said and then pulled me over so I was on his lap. I squealed and saw that Niall was smiling at us.

"You guys are disgustingly cute. Woah! Is that a ring on your finger Y/l/n?" Niall asked.

"No one has ever referred to me just by my last name. Yes this is a ring, but it's a promise ring." I said. Niall nodded and I saw his eyes turn to Shawn as Niall sipped his beer.

"So Shawn, what's the promise?" Niall asked and I turned myself a little so I could see Shawn better. Shawn smiled and rubbed my legs a bit.

"It's a promise to change that ring for an engagement ring someday, and then we'll switch that engagement ring to a wedding ring someday." Shawn said and Niall nodded. He then looked at me.

"Be honest Y/n, do you love Shawn enough to marry the guy?" Niall asked. I smiled and laughed a little.

"Yes definitely! Maybe not right now because we've only been dating for six months, but down the line, yes I wouldn't mind being married to him." I said and Shawn kissed my cheek.

"So how far down the line do you think until he puts an engagement ring on your finger?" Niall asked. I thought for a moment before shrugging.

"I don't know. It's up to him when he wants to propose but I definitely want to really, really know him as best as I possibly can and be absolute best friends with him. Maybe two or three years." I said as I looked at Niall. His eyes widened.

"Oi! That long?" He asked. I suddenly felt bad and I went to open my mouth to say something but then Shawn began to speak.

"I don't mind waiting that long. I would wait a lifetime for her. I'll propose to her when the time is right." Shawn said and I nodded. I still felt bad though. Niall nodded.

"I'm just saying, I don't know how long I would want to wait. If I knew that the person was the one, I would want to marry them as soon as I could." Niall said.

"But don't you want to get to know the person? Marriage is a lifelong commitment and so don't you want to know what you're getting into?" I asked him. He shrugged.

"I could always just figure them out along the way." Niall said.

"But what if you don't like how they are but you've already spent a whole bunch of money on a wedding and then you have to pay for a divorce?" I asked. Niall shrugged.

"I have the money for it, it's okay." Niall said. I stood up and went out on Shawn's balcony. My parents divorced not too long ago and money has always been a problem for my family. I looked out at the view of Toronto and took a deep breath in.

"Money is tight right now, so we have to be careful." My mom said. I nodded.

"Okay. I'll be careful." I said. She said the same thing the next month too.

"Your father and I are getting a divorce." My mom said as her and my dad sat my brother and I down and I watched as she took off her wedding ring and place it on their wedding picture which I was holding on my lap.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I felt a hand on my back. I jumped.

"Shhh darling, it's just me." Shawn said. I nodded.

"I hate it when people act like money is nothing and like divorce isn't anything either." I said.

"I know darling. Niall realized that what he said wasn't good and he wants to apologize." Shawn said. I nodded and we went back inside.

"I'm sorry Y/n. I said some stupid stuff." Niall said. I nodded and sat next to Shawn on the couch.

"Thank you for apologizing." I said and he nodded.

"Y/n actually once went to a One Direction concert back in 2014." Shawn said.

"Really?" Niall asked with wide eyes. I nodded.

"Yeah. You guys were great. I especially loved the fact that you guys had fireworks." I said and Niall nodded.

"Thank you." He said. I nodded. Niall and I made up and the next day we all went golfing. I sucked at it and stuck my bottom lip out at Shawn, who chuckled and pulled me close to him.

"Why is my baby pouting?" He asked.

"Because I suck at golf!" I said. Shawn laughed a little. "Don't laugh!"

"You're just so cute. It's okay that you're not the best babe. You're the best for me and that's all that matters." Shawn said as he pulled me in for a hug and kissed the top of my head.

"Oi! You guys are disgustingly cute." Niall said and we looked at him and laughed.

"Are you filming us?" I asked. Niall nodded and then put his phone down.

"Yup. Mind if that goes on my Instagram story?" Niall asked. Shawn and I looked at each other and shrugged.

"No, go ahead." Shawn said and I nodded.

"Yeah, that's fine with me." I said. We had a fun time golfing with Niall - even though I sucked at it. I'm always grateful for time with my amazing boyfriend.
